Arifine-MT 10 Tablet is used to treat mood disorders like schizophrenia, irritability linked with autism, and Tourette's syndrome. Besides this, it also helps in managing mental depression along with other antidepressant medicines. It contains Aripiprazole, which stabilizes and blocks the dopamine and serotonin receptors in the brain, preventing their overactivity, thereby controlling the positive symptoms like hallucinations, misbelief, and unfriendly characteristics of schizophrenia. It improves the activity of dopamine and serotonin receptors in other areas of the brain. It helps control negative symptoms (like lack of emotion, social isolation, poor attention, and memory loss) of schizophrenia. Thus, it improves mood swings, depression, and other psychotic problems.
